Usually I blog about things I hate. Today, for variety, I blog about things I like.
I like to watch drag, dance, comedy, drama, and documentaries, not necessarily in that order.
I like to fool around with linux, even though I'm the only one I know that does.
I like to play weird, off-the-wall openings in Chess. The weirder, the better, in my book.
I like to cooperate with people and give them good advice. It may be that the only purpose in life is to spread a little bit of wisdom and sunshine here and there.
I like to get paid for doing work that I enjoy, rare enough though that is.
I like to have a lot of that sort of work.
I like to play some of the most difficult races in Dungeon Crawl, such as troll and mummy, just to see if I can win with one of these "impossible" races.
I like to fight crime by working on security for web sites.
I like to discover that strangers are actually good people with good intentions, rather than something else.
I like to avoid complications.
I like reading.
I like cats.
I prefer winter to summer, cold to hot, spicy to plain, and bitter to sweet.
I like zombie movies, and I've finally come around to liking Game of Thrones.
